[QUOTE="AKA_RedRimmed_Desert, post: 131476, member: 4527"] People who are lucky enough to live in S California and Arizona an area that often gives up a nice nugget, whether 2 1/2 ounces or over 1 lb. they all look nice in photos and videos. Where I live, during the ice ages, gravel was moved down leaving gold in places. It seems to be the flood plains that concentrated the gold, at the edges of melting glaciers. This would be 2 hours south where limestone bedrock is found or 5-6 hours for better gold fields. Up north near the state line of Indiana/Michigan, there are a lot of quartz float rocks you can find. I've got one nice size rock with a white quartz vein running through it. Macro close ups, after much enlarging show some color, but it still is micro particles. You could never find enough for to be practical, have a rock crusher. [/QUOTE]
